I like the way the car looks like it is hugging the road, even at a standstill.
For a vehicle with a small engine, the tranmission keeps up and is not constantly searching for the right gear.
I drive 38 miles one way to work. Even with the A/C running or the windows/sun roof open, I average 37.4 MPG. My best has been 39.4, but I slowed down to 75 to get that.
The car is very quick and responsive. It handles the highway expansion joint bumps as if it was a heavier vehicle.
